56080 to 56116

  • Axle: 1'E
  • Total quantity: 37
  • First year: 1948
  • Manufacturer: Vulcan Foundry (GB), Beyer-Peacock

These engines are a subsequent manufacturing order to the 56001 / 56079. They are identical except that they were built in Great Britain. The order was placed before the war but could not be fulfilled until 1948.

These engines have such a Germanic look that it is hardly believable they were built in Great Britain.
